When I filed my 2025 tax return on line this year, the amount that I entered for social security in 6A was not brought over to 6B. Has anyone else experience the same problem? The system should have brought it over automatically but it didn't

     Yes a lot of people are missing the Foreign country question or answering it wrong.  After you enter SS keep going.  Starting in 2024 there is a new question asking if you lived in a foreign country. People were answering it wrong or skipping it. Go back through the Social Security entries and check, check for each spouse if married. If the IRS adjusted your return you do not need to amend.
